The city of Odessa, in southern Ukraine, was left without power on Saturday, following an attack by „kamikaze drones” during the night, Ukrainian authorities have announced. Critical infrastructure however, such as hospitals and maternity wards, did have electricity. Kyiv said on Friday that the southern regions, Odessa included, are the worst affected by power outages days after the most recent series of Russian attacks on the Ukrainian power network. Russian President Vladimir Putin said Thursday that his army will continue to strike Ukrainian power networks, in spite of harsh criticism from the West. In this context, the EU has already announced it will send electric power generators to Ukraine, each having the capacity to supply energy to an entire hospital.
